theres this code (not mine its g4music's) that doesn't seem to work. Its trying to send Artist and Music title to mpris thru dbus so apps like playerctl can use it, except those values never show up except in dbus monitor with "destination = null" How can i fix this?
I’m AFK currently, but here’s the equivalent code in elementary Music that is working here for comparison https://github.com/elementary/music/blob/main/src/DBus/MprisPlayer.vala

Fedora 36 fresh install. Native res, no scale. Blurry?
libhandy does not exist for GTK4. So, newer elementary apps will use GTK4 + Granite. An example is the new GTK4-based Music application. Cassidy, one of the lead devs of elementary, has said that libadwaita can be used in GTK4 elementary apps too but there's no real example of this afaik.

I don't want streaming music, I just want to stream my music
A shameless plug, but you may also like Quod Libet[1]. Although not for everyone, it has very advanced searching and the more unusual integrations and features all implemented as plugins.

Which music players exist which are currently still developed/maintained and have a GUI?
Quod Libet works well in my limited experience. I don't use it for extensive things besides playing music, making playlists, and such. It fits your qualifications by the standards I just mentioned, has a GUI, and last contribution on their github seems to be 9 days ago for the docs, and 15 days ago for code related materials.
